I have been having a problem logging into my World of Warcraft server, stuck at character loading screen on all toons. I did all the usual stuff, including a ip release/renew/flush rebooting everything, firewall checking etc. I've now done a tracert to the server, but I'm a bit of a noob in analyzing it. Hope someone can help, see below & sorry for upcoming wall of text. Can anyone explain the timouts? This only started happening a few days ago.

Tracing route to 195-12-232-102.customer.teliacarrier.com [195.12.232.102]
over a maximum of 30 hops:

Trace complete.
 
Ok, their website explains the 'Request timed out' notices. See below:

Because of the safeguards that protect our Battle.net servers, you may notice later hops in your trace route failing with an error message such as 'Request Timed Out' or 'Destination Net Unreachable'. You can ignore any error messages you receive after contacting our servers as they do not indicate a problem with the internet connection. To identify our servers, look for the following suffixes: telia.net,.attens.net, att.net, alter.net

Still does not solve my problem. Suggestions would be welcome.
